1-200 year for collapse is not really very specific. I'd give any country on earth 1-200 years for them to collapse.

America is arguably the oldest political system today. Being ~250 years old makes it an extreme outlier. The median life of a political system/regime is much lower, so saying up to 200 years from now is a pretty safe confidence interval for any country.

If we mean by that, 'Which country has ensured that all adult citizens regardless of sex, race, or ethnicity, may choose reprentatives to exercise the powers of government longest?', then the answer is New Zealand. Universal adult suffrage was first established there in 1893.

To me this sounds exactly like the current tension between federal and states rights in America.

I wonder if there is some critical mass of integrated differences wherein tribalism re-nucleates and the sub-groups abandon the larger umbrella.
This, combined with fertility rates and population level mental health all point to an empire in decline. I would give it 1-200 years before collapse, all empires have.
